Love these jeans - a wardrobe staple. They're so soft, comfy and as with all the Hudson's I've tried the waistband and double button mean no muffin top! Just a couple of things to consider before purchase. My other Hudsons are 28s and I wanted these to be super tight so ordered a size down - 27s - and there is still a little bit of room in them, could possibly even squeeze into the next size down (26). As well, as others have said they are a little sheer. You can see the seams down the sides and around the pockets. I am 5'7'' and they bunch a tiny bit an the ankle (as in the picture) but still look great with heels and flats. Definitely don't think either of those things spoils the look at all - but if it would bother you then....maybe look at some others. Personally I think they are fantastic.
